Craig's List Roundup

Lovely simple lines on this iron bed - $100

It's been a while since I trolled around Craigslist looking for things I don't need - I have had no need, what with The Listings List bringing me all the good stuff with a fantastic dose of snarky humour.  But tonight the hubby is out and I am too tired to do any work but too wired to go to bed early, so treasure trolling it is.  Here are a few things that caught my eye amongst the insanely overpriced junk and car parts:

Art deco-shaped brass and glass shelves - $175

Oh-so-chic brass pendants with filament bulbs, two for $210 (so you know they want $200) isn't a crazy price...

'K, don't even really read this one... this kilim is mine (for $175).  Sorry honey, it has to be done.

LOVE the straight square lines on this brass headhttp://toronto.en.craigslist.ca/tor/atq/3847527990.htmlboard.  LOVE.  WANT. $300

Looking beat-to-hell, but isn't that the point with these lamps?  All that character, in working order... for only $35!  You know this would be at least double that at SMASH.

A lovely walnut dresser with completely the wrong knobs (imho) - $225

Are these ugly?  I kind of love them - brass and rosewood flatware for $80

"Retro" light from Union Lighting means you won't need to rewire it! - $75

Sometimes a half-moon console table is just the right size for awkward spaces.  This guys has a nice shape, but it is looking a little rough, so I would talk them down... from $30.

Oh spool beds, how I love you. I really do. Even for $300.

 Anything tempt you?  Do you think I might have a thing for wood and brass?  Maybe?

Kijiji deals

I was taking some baby stuff off of Kijiji and of course could not resist the pull of a quick mosey through the aisles.  Here is some awesome stuff I thought could be nabbed at pretty great prices!  Do you agree or am I wasting my imaginary money?  (Husbands of mine need not reply...)

Cool Chrome Bistro table - $75.  Would look great in a corner piled with potted plants. 

Gorgeous mid-century chrome stacked ball lamp - $85.  Hello bedside table lamp! I love this puppy.

 Beautiful mid-century neutral-coloured chair.  $500.  Seem steep?  

That price will also get you the matching sofa below!  Unfortunate red pillows and side lighting (highlighting every pucker), but amazing deal.

 Slate-topped Iron Table from India - $75.  Amazing one-of-a-kind coffee table with an industrial feel.

 Funky orange and white 50's diner-style table - $445.

Could be the perfect mod conversation piece, while not being too in-your-face.

Brass Mid-century lamp - $40.  Ok, it's kind of kooky, but I reeeeally love it.  Definitely unique.  And $40?  Common.  I may just have to send an email....
